Biomphalaria glabrata immunity: Post-genome advances [PDF]
Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 2020 The freshwater snail, Biomphalaria glabrata, is an important intermediate host in the life cycle for the human parasite Schistosoma mansoni, the causative agent of schistosomiasis. Current treatment and prevention strategies have not led to a significant decrease in disease transmission. However, the genome of B.

On the origin of the Biomphalaria glabrata hemocytes [PDF]
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2006 A histologic, morphometric and ultrastructural study performed on Biomphalaria glabrata submitted to infection with Schistosoma mansoni miracidia failed to provide significant evidences that the so-called amebocyte-producing organ (APO) is really the central organ for hemocyte production.

A contribution to the pathobiology of Biomphalaria glabrata hemocytes [PDF]
Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2006 This study attempts to investigate the relationship between the hemocytes in the two compartments: circulating peripheral lymph and the connective tissues. The hemocytes are compared with the vertebrate macrophages and constitute the principal line of defense against external aggression.

Contribution to the histology of Biomphalaria glabrata [PDF]
Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 1999 A combination of histological techniques applied to the study of Biomphalaria glabrata yielded some interesting new data about the histology of this snail, a major intermediate host of Schistosoma mansoni in Brazil. Three kinds of pigments were identified: a dark pigment which bleached following oxidation with potassium permanganate; a lipofuchsin-like,
